After being less than thrilled with Berlin (Edit 2019: I like Berlin now!), I had low expectations for Munich.

There was no reason for it.

I only understood a few things about the city: Oktoberfest is there, Hitler had his beer hall putsch there, as well as it has a popular (and overrated) clock.

Everyone has heard of Munich, however I truly understood nothing about it.

But I hadn’t been thrilled with Germany therefore far as well as figured Munich may be one more disappointment.

It wasn’t.

I liked Munich. Munich was what Berlin wasn’t. It was beautiful, had a city center, massive eco-friendly parks, tasty food, as well as friendlier people.

I spent four days in Munich, as well as I can see why so lots of people like the city even when Oktoberfest isn’t there. I don’t question I would take pleasure in 100,000 drunk people in tents, however all that drinking would take away from the appeal Munich has to offer.

Munich was my time to decompress after lots of late nights in Berlin. A late booking put me in a hostel that likewise doubled as a hotel for big groups of prepubescent teens. big groups of Scottish youngsters roamed around as well as were ultimately complied with by big groups of Spanish kids. (I don’t truly like kids, so it was a bit frustrating trying to do work with youngsters screaming all around me.)

Luckily, across the street was a beer hall. The hotel personnel composed down some Bavarian dishes for me to try, as well as I ventured across to see what a Bavarian beer hall really looks like. let me tell you—it’s nuts! long tables of people squeezed together with huge steins of beer as well as ridiculously heart-clogging food. Squeezing in between some people, I dug into a truly great beer as well as some dishes that were sure to pack on the pounds. Their names getaway me ideal now, however they were truly delicious. I was pleasantly shocked by Bavarian food.

Munich has a great deal of appeal in it, as well as roaming around the city was a great modification from the industrial Berlin. One day, on the method to the Bavarian history Museum, I unknowingly walked past the English gardens (very beautiful). one of the very best things about wandering around is that you never understand what you’ll see. In the gardens, I stumbled across some surfers.

Now, obviously these people are rather well known, however I had no concept they existed. It was an incredible thing to see—a lot of surfers riding the waves of a river as it barreled out from under a bridge. Snow had just fallen in the mountains, melting into the city as well as making this river rather the sight to see. My iphone came in handy, as well as I was able to get this video:

I’m happy I saw them since the Bavarian museum was a total squander of time. Luckily, on Sunday, it’s only one euro to enter, so I don’t feel as well cheated. There was no story or anything—just a lot of old relics as well as artifacts. as well as while the fits of armor were somewhat interesting, for me museums are about discovering a place’s story as well as right here there was none. I was out in 15 minutes.

I much favored the Residence. This is the old palace for Bavarian Princes where you likewise get to see the crown jewels. Not as extravagant as Versailles, the palace is extremely German in that it’s austere, functional, as well as simple.

The a lot of fascinating part of my see was the rock concert. Originally, I was going to Couchsurf, however it didn’t work out. However, the hold as well as I did satisfy for a night out on the town. She, her friends, as well as I went to a huge multi-artist show on Saturday night. I had no concept what the bands were stating (I don’t speak German), however the vibe was great, as well as trying to speak damaged English with the locals was quite amusing. As was discovering poor German words.

Munich was an fascinating location to visit. It lacks the industrial, arty feel Berlin has, it’s a bit cozier, the parks are prettier, as well as the Bavarian beer hall atmosphere is a great deal of fun. Moreover, the food, while hearty, is delicious. Munich is a huge stop on the backpacker trail, however even if you’re not on that, take a long time out to see Munich.
